Regarding SLS Materials and Applications

Why choose SLS technology

• No need for supporting structure → Suitable for complex geometries and hollow structures
• High strength and durability → Suitable for functional testing and final-use components
• High design flexibility → Capable of printing multiple complex components at once
• Material diversity → Nylon, glass fiber reinforced, carbon fiber reinforced, TPU, etc.

Process fl

• Coating powder: A thin layer of powder is spread in the forming chamber.
• Laser Sintering: The laser sinters the designated area based on the slice data.
• Layer-by-layer stacking: Repeated powder application + sintering, forming through layer-by-layer assembly
• Cooling for pickup: Cool the part in the powder bed after printing is completed.
• Post-processing: Removal of powder, sandblasting, coloring, coating, etc.

Let’s take a look at the working principle of SLS.
